The Semi's... The dream continues

The semi final draw threw up 2 interesting ties... The unbeaten Slaanesh 69ers against the rank outsiders the Tinys n' titans Whilst the pro GIMPS with their line up of beasts and men along with... well just some men.

The extra power saw the Humans defeated and the pact comfortably through

Semi final result:

Winner: GIMPS
Coach: Tom
TDs:1
Cas:3

Loser: Rottenham Redsox
Coach: Aneurin
TDs:0
Cas:3

Highlights:

A fun close game saw the GIMPS kick off first. The Redsox made some good positional moves to get several key players deep into the GIMPS half. Turn 2 saw their mercenary Ogre KO'd but they continued to push forward. It was down to Handy Powell the Redsox star thrower to pass the ball to a waiting receiver in turn 5. His recent form is terrible and he yet again threw an inaccurate pass (I needed a 3+ with a re-roll). This allowed the GIMPS agility 5 elf to capitalise on the situation and run the ball into the endzone over the 3 remaining turns of the half. 1-0. In their dumbfounded stupor the Redsox failed to utilise the wizard hidden in the crowd. 

2nd half saw the GIMPS start a cage to push into the Redsox half. This time the coach did use the wizard at his disposal to cripple the advance. The fireball levelled 4 players, only the Minotaur could stand the heat. The Refsox blitzers and catcher regained the ball and ran deep into the GIMPS half. But with 3 big guys just generally hanging around causing problems the Redsox failed to capitalise on thierry position to score the equaliser. 



The second game would surely go to form?!

The curse is broken! Slaanesh obviously got bored of his playthings as the 69'ers finally failed to do much. Their anger was released midway through the second half and took out two Ogres (one of who will be missing the final) but the Titans had the lions share of the luck. The 69'ers took the lead early on in the first half then one the Titans' Snotlings broke through to equalise on the stroke of half time. With the introduction of a hired wizard, the Titans managed to then take the lead and grind out the result for the adulation of the entire club (probably)



The third place playoff occurred in a behind closed doors match... presumably due to fear of reprisals from the god of Slaanesh the game finished...
